A system and method for applying a reduced sugar coating to a food product is provided. The system uses separate applications (simultaneous or sequential) of a non-sucrose carbohydrate syrup from a first applicator and a sucrose syrup from a second applicator. The dual applications of the syrups are applied without an active drying step between applications. The process results in a coated food product with reduced clumping and a desired crystallized appearance even with the reduced levels of sugar.

Dual-spray reduced sugar coating system and method

A system and method for applying a reduced sugar coating to a food product is provided using a natural whitening system. The methods include preparing a foam and then maintaining that foam through a spray nozzle to coat a food product with a spray-applied foam that mimics the appearance of a high sucrose frosting or icing.
